I don't know that there are any techniques that are "new" anymore.... but this one is new to me. I wanted to think of a way to add a background color quick and easy. I didn't want to fussy cut the twigs, and the thought of making all those masks was just too much for me to get my head around so here's what I did...
I covered all the stamped leaves with Ranger Glossy Accents. Make sure you just walk away and let them dry.. you're not going to hurry this so don't even try! I left mine overnight. The next morning I used cosmetic brushes to add ombre shades of distress ink and a splatter of gold. I used an old towel to wipe off the excess ink from the shiny leaves and WOW! So happy with the results! The shine looks heat embossed without the mess.
